An Explanation of My Idea

Our idea was to create a scenario similar to '8 mile'. This film starts with our main character, Ramo, mumbling his lyrics to himself for a few seconds. I knock on the door and ask Ramo if he’s ready and he says that he’s ready to have his battle. We came up with this idea because we are both fans of Eminem and wanted to re-create the scene. The scene begins with Ramo in the bathroom practicing his lyrics. Then our second character, Sharnizzle, knocks on the door to tell Ramo that he needs to go onto stage.  

The camera techniques I used was Close up to capture the detail and expression on Ramo's  face, I used the extreme long shot to show the second character to show where he was going. Match on action was used because it showed the second character what room he was going into. I used shot reverse shot to show Sharnizzle and Ramo conversation and we kept the 180 degree as well.

The first edit technique I used was a fade to black to start the scene then a few cut edits then I used a match on action edit to show Sharnizzle coming to talk to Ramo. 

The challenges I found during filming was keeping the characters head 1/3 of  the way down, I also have trouble with my clothes for the filming because I wasn't organised I didn't wear the same clothes. When I was first filming so I had to film some of the scenes I had to record again. The things I would change if I was to film this again I would make sure that I'm more organised with my stuff but a part from that that's about it.
